i need quick answers guys, i about to get rid of my 92 chevy blazer with 190k miles on it (its worth about 450$) for 2 grams of raw dope........im getting kicked out of my house anyway so who knows but what do you guys think? go for it?

WAAAAAAIT! What happened to being over with all of it, dude?

Unless you live in a large city where you can get around via subway/bus, keep your wheels. Not only can you sleep in it if you need to, but they are good for getting to your next deal...just my opinion...

Yeah, I'd hang on to that truck..........at least you'll be outta the elements.

Most dopefiends have found through experience that transportation is a hot commodity.
I survived a pretty long time in 99 strictly by transporting people from my hometown to N Philly to cop. I had no job or place to live, just a 93 Buick Century. I charged bags and gas and maintained rather comfortably. I knew a stack of people who were dopefiends.....it was almost easy.

HAng onto the truck, you can even drive the boosters around on "shopping trips" to hustle money or dope.

turdkenedy

08-19-2007, 10:05 AM

even if you do trade it for dope you have to fill out the legit paperwork and hand over the title or the deal wont be legit.

personally though, if your car is worth 450 and you are selling it for 2 grams isnt 2 grams presumably worth less than 450.

also if you are getting kicked out of your home, the last thing on your mind should be scoring more dope.

i reccomend u dont go thru with that deal and you try to help yourself . good luck broseph :D

Yep: I did that in Corpus Christi...not just dopefiends, but illegal immigrants, they were *used* to paying five-ten bucks to anybody, particularly w/a little pick-up or RV, who would lug them around....and dope-fiends hell yeah...once u loose a ride, u loose a sure-fire house too...when things get tough...

so i guess no one here has ever asked for advice and then not taken it? it doesnt sound like a stunt to get attention to me. it sounds like he had to pick between dope tonite or no dope. i think we have all made stupid decisions when that has been the case. obviously not the brightest move, but c'est la vie. i hope you find a place to sleep at night and if are serious about trying to get off, that you find strength somewhere.

Words of the wise. I would never even consider trading my wheels for dope, EVER, even if it needed work. Worst case is sell it and get a new ride.

Two days from now dude's gonna be dopesick with sore feet.. I'd recommend offing that shit and jumping on craigslist - stat.

08-20-2007, 12:39 AM

Are you and Shelley somehow connected???? This is weird
Under "The Scene" forum with heading
"i still can't believe she did it!!!!" there is a posting by Shelley
i've had a rough week
but today the best thing happened!
i share the shit, so i gotta share the awesomeness...
i have the best dealer in west palm beach
he has a lot of customers
(when i go to his house i have to wait in line)
and has decided he doesn't want to meet any new junkies/crackheads
all my friends want to be introduced
but he told me more than once
"it's just you and me, girl"
anyways, i had copped 5 grams of awesome shit
god damn it was good
i've been having a hard time finding a vein lately
so i offered a friend of mine a shot
in exchange for being able to sit and take my time
shooting up at her apt
it put her on the moon
and she begged me for more
but she didn't have any money
but she did have an almost-new suv
(i guess saying what kind would incriminate me)
let's just say it's a BEAUTIFUL fucking truck
i still can't believe she did it
but she did it
traded me the car, the keys, the reg, and the title
for 2 grams of dope
i get my lisence back next month
so it'll be legit soon
but oh my god i pay a bill for a gram
i basically bought an suv for $200
the truck is in great shape too
it's even got 22s on it
custom sound system
that girl was psycho to give it up
i feel like the luckiest ho in the world
now i don't hafta freak when i can't get a motel room
i just can't park it at any motel
but free 24-hr public parking is everywhere in wpb
i'm still in shock
i bet that girl is out of dope and kicking herself in the ass right now...

I would agree with you IF this post were the only "dumb" one. But in the face of several less-than-sharp posts (including most recently "should I post a video of my IVing", I agree with Brony.

Jay, you KNOW (dear God, I sure as hell hope you know) the answer to these questions before you post them. I'm sure everyone on the site, including most certainly me, wishes you the very best... but you're coming across as young and foolish... and that combo leads to regret. Please take care of yourself, and think before you act... and post.

Duckfeet

08-20-2007, 05:47 PM

I just came back from swimming. I saw your attempt to post a video of you shooting up dope. :-( Jay, don't you see how these posts can really irritate people? You might want to try *not* starting threads, but simply responding to other people's threads for a while, let people get to know you, and at the same time you could learn more about this site from people who have been here a while. Maybe even, u know, try to be helpful and friendly, supportive of people having hard times. I know you're only nineteen, and probably not *trying* to get on the wrong side of lots of people, but still, it keeps happening.

Our goal is to keep the site up, not to attract unwanted attention, and to keep things rolling smoothly on here. There is a lot of good information on here, and a lot of people who have been around for a long time, both online, and in the junky world itself. We already know how to shoot up dope, don't need videos. I'd much rather hear you were getting your life together, making some friends, having adventures, meeting girls. To me even the idea of another nineteen year old who thinks it's cool to be a dopefiend is somehow very sad, really. I met my last girl in a shooting gallery when she was fifteen. Last time I saw her she was 37, and back in prison in Louisiana. That's really how these stories go, man, nothing good comes from it. For every one musician or writer, there are thousands that end up just old men drinking wine with collapsed veins and shot livers, telling stories that nobody wants to hear. Nothing cool about it.

I hope you can calm down a bit, maybe learn not to attract so much attention on here, be friendly to people and avoid being the center or attention, go on to get your life in order, rather than watch it all too quickly fall apart, as it seems to have been doing... I hope you don't end up finding out like I did, just how hard it is for young white boys in prison.

I started not to post this publicly, but since everything else is being thrown out here in public, maybe if u aren't interested, some other new person might be. I've actually been rooting for you, and hoped you'd quit getting in trouble on here, but...

No offense man but being 19 and stoned is not an excuse for lack of common sense. Try reading the forum for awhile and posting less. I frequent another forum where I've got about 70 posts in three years, why? Because those guys know a fuck of a lot more about the subject at hand than I do and I learn a lot by just laying low and reading, plus they flame the shit out of people who don't know what they're talking about. This forum is a much nicer place.

Stop trying so hard to get attention. And I'll tell ya, heroin robbed me of my 20s, keep it up and you WILL regret throwing those years away. You should be chasing girls and building cars, not shooting drugs. The dope will still be there when you need it..

I know I re-iterated some of what Duck said but it seems warranted..

mrklean

08-20-2007, 06:48 PM

There are some old and wise people on here like the ones who have already posted. Listen to them. I am not too much older than you but since I was nineteen I feel like I have learned more than alot of folks do in a lifetime. It is truely and only by the grace of god that I'm still alive and I know that probably sounds like the queerest shit ever to you right now but it is the stone cold honest painful truth. If you don't start to have some respect for what your fellow human beings have to say (especially when you ask what they think) you will be a sorry excuse for a junky let alone a decent person. The people on this forum aren't giving you their honest opinion because they are your parents, or because they have some alternative agenda. They are telling you good shit that is true because they love respect and care about you as a fellow junky, and human being. If I had ever had people like this to ask for advice I probably would be alot better off today. But it wouldn't have made any fucking difference if I just disregarded the opinions which I had solicited. Although, at nineteen I don't think I was smart enough to give a damn what anyone else thought, and way to cocky to ask anyways. One of the things I have learned recently and am still trying to get in the practice of doing is asking others for help, and then accepting it graciously. There is nothing graceful about asking for someones opinion and then totally ignoring them. A good junky who is going to have long pleasurable runs and plenty of dope no cops and be generally high and happy is one who can ask for help and then accept it even if nots exactly the kind of help they were looking for. I'm just echoing the echo in here so I'm out.

If common sense was the hallmark of opiaters, you'd all be sitting checking the stocks, moving your assets into gold, n shit, instead of using dope and writing about it here.
We've all been there.

Jayman, seriously take some good advice from people who've been there before. And yeah, you might be dumb for trading your truck for dope, but you deserve some kind of junkie medal of honor.
Trading your wheels for dope, that, my man is a classic move.

I understand you're 19 and foolish, but wise up! I think the main reason you post this stuff isn't because you don't already know the answer, but because you want validation for something, be it your habbit, your choices, whatever. No one here is going to say, yes, sell your jeep for 2.5 grams, and even though we (and you) know it's the wrong choice, go ahead and do it, and we'll say you made the right choice. OF COURSE YOU MADE THE WRONG CHOICE!

EleusisII

08-20-2007, 07:05 PM

You know, I can see why it would seem like a good idea, if your strung out enough. You justify it somehow, and you know you got money coming through, and hell, maybe you could sell half your score to somebody and you could have the cash to buy it back. It was a piece of shit truck anyways, and after this score you'll quit you know? And on goes the grind, until it starts to rain, and you don't have a roof over your head, no wheels, and no dope. Fuck!

08-20-2007, 07:12 PM

Cars are often taken for granted till you don't got one. I have been trying to get back on the road for a while now, and let me tell you if you have no credit it is a bitch. In this state they are strict as hell with the vehicle inspections when buying a car. If you don't know a mechanic who will fudge an inspection certificate you are going to end up paying alot to have a shitty car worked on to pass or alot to buy a car that is a guaranteed pass. With all the legal and health bills I've racked up it is hard to imagine paying for tax tags insurance licensing gas all that. Right now I would love to have back one of those old beaters I recklessly crashed, abandoned etc.

Look Jay, the best thing you can do right now is sit down and shut the hell up. All you're doing is causing problems here, and you CERTAINLY don't have the reputation here to get away with it. People that continue to be a problem end up as OpiNoMo-in other words-BANNED.

Please chill the fuck out and actually READ all the great threads and posts here. You'll learn a lot more that way than asking these "attention whore" questions. And guess what? The amount of dope you shoot in a day doesn't matter to us–all that registers with us is that you shoot dope (not that I believe you do).

Chill out–or get out.

Duckfeet

08-21-2007, 04:00 PM

If you go to the NA meeting, I'm sure there will be people there who can help you, and who know where there are any free treatment centers in your area...sometimes at the end of meetings, they will say: "are there any non-NA announcements?" and that is a good time to ask this kind of question. Or just get the yellow pages, and call any treatment center. They usually know which ones are for people without insurance. I did that in Louisiana, about 20 years ago, and they got me help. I go to AA anyway...NA doesn't always like people on methadone, and in AA it's an outside issue. Meetings aren't for everybody. Soooo, PM me if you want to ask about this stuff...

Most rehabs won't take you unless you've detoxed, they usually want 72hrs clean. You can lie but they get a little bent when/if they find out. I've gone into programs and smuggled in benzos to get through the first couple weeks but I don't recommend that. People at the meetings should be able to tell you whats available in your area.

I've gotten into state run programs in Washington and California and there is usually a waiting list, sometimes months.. NH might be different, I don't know..

Duckfeet

08-21-2007, 04:12 PM

Also, most places have detoxes, usually free ones, and that is often the *first* step towards getting in a treatment center. Look up in yellow pages, ask where there is a detox around there, they'll hook you up....
